UK Public Sector Contracts & Tenders

The GLA is delivering the Warm Homes: Local Grant Programme in partnership with 30 London boroughs. To strengthen delivery, the GLA is exploring running a pilot project to better understand how community organisations can support vulnerable residents throughout the retrofit process. The aim is to improve the resident experience and reduce dropout rates. Identification of eligible households and installation of measures will be managed by the GLA and its delivery partners. Community organisations would focus on resident‑facing support, from initial engagement through to installation. For example, this could include helping vulnerable residents understand their energy assessment, providing tailored advice on recommended measures, supporting form-filling, offering in‑home or remote guidance during installation, and ensuring residents feel informed and confident throughout the process. This preliminary engagement seeks to understand capacity, capability, delivery models, and potential challenges within the market. It may be undertaken in multiple stages following completion of the questionnaire stage. Insights will inform the future procurement strategy, including potential commissioning options. Approach To shape the design and delivery of the pilot project, we invite organisations to complete a short questionnaire. The purpose of this exercise is to gather market insights on: Potential service delivery models Capacity and readiness to deliver Opportunities and challenges within the supply chain Considerations for future procurement (Note: we are not seeking to duplicate existing services. Instead, we aim to fill gaps in provision. For example, where organisations currently offer telephone advice funded through other schemes but cannot provide in‑home energy advice or hands‑on resident support.) This exercise is for information‑gathering only. It does not constitute a commitment to procure, and participation will not preclude suppliers from future procurement opportunities.

Transport for London (TfL) is procuring on behalf of the Greater London Authority (GLA), and invites suitably qualified suppliers to participate in, an Open Procedure for the delivery of services under the Mayor's Homes Off the Streets (HOTS) programme. This recommissioning process presents a vital opportunity to reshape the future of rough sleeping services to achieve the Mayor's Rough Sleeping Plan of Action, (https://www.london.gov.uk/programmes-strategies/housing-and-land/mayors-priorities-londons-housing-and-land/homelessness/services-people-experiencing-homelessness-including-sleeping-rough/mayors-rough-sleeping-plan-action) with the ambitious goal of ending rough sleeping in London by 2030. We are seeking to transform service delivery models to preventing returns to rough sleeping, and ensure targeted sustainable routes off the streets. There are seven lots in total. This procurement covers the delivery of a pan-London Clearing House service and six Tenancy Sustainment Team (TST) services, including five geographic sub-regional TST lots that form part of the Clearing House partnership, and one pan-London Private Rented Sector (PRS) TST which is a standalone service. These services support residents with a history of rough sleeping to access, sustain, and thrive in long‑term stable housing. 1. Clearing House (Lot 1) A single pan‑London contract delivering: • Coordination of referrals, property nominations and allocations • Partnership working with housing associations and support providers • Management of the 3,700+ home Clearing House partnership • Providing the Clearing House system used by stakeholders to make referrals and advertise homes 2. Tenancy Sustainment Teams (TST) (Lots 2-6) The TSTs will provide floating long-term support to tenants in Clearing House accommodation.

Private Rented Sector (PRS) Tenancy Sustainment Team (TST) (Lot 7) PRS TST will provide short-term floating support to clients at the point that they first move into private rented sector accommodation. They will manage referrals and assessments and provide support around: • Setting up a tenancy, including utilities and bills • Understanding tenancy rights and responsibilities • Tenancy sustainment • Personal wellbeing, community integration and independence Bidders may apply for multiple lots; however the total annual value of awards will be limited to a maximum of 50% of the bidder's annual turnover. All lots include a core element and General Optional services to support increased caseloads. Lot 7 additionally includes a Specific Optional services element to deliver a PRS Tenancy Rescue service offer, consisting of crisis intervention for tenants at imminent risk of losing PRS accommodation. Please note this is the estimated maximum value. Actual values of the services are likely to be lower than this value. The values include core services, specific optional services, and general optional services including expansion of the services. Contract start date is estimated to be 1st April 2027.

This preliminary market engagement process is being managed by Transport for London (TfL) on behalf of the Greater London Authority (GLA), the 'Contracting Authority'. Part 4 of the Domestic Abuse Act (2021) placed new statutory duties on tier one authorities to deliver Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation (DASA) provision. The duty aims to ensure victims/survivors of domestic abuse, along with their children, can access a range of support within safe accommodation or to help them access safe accommodation. As a tier one authority with duties under the Act, the Greater London Authority (GLA), in partnership with the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), is preparing to recommission safe accommodation and support services for survivors of domestic abuse across London. Based on previous allocations from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), we anticipate funding to be approximately £20 million per annum for up to six years. However, the final funding amount and duration will be confirmed by MHCLG in due course. The current commissioning arrangements, including the Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation (DASA) Framework and continuation grants, are scheduled to conclude by March 2027 (subject to any extensions). Services commissioned through DASA are currently delivered by a mix of Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) providers, London Boroughs, housing and homelessness organisations, and wider VCS partners. All providers deliver services that meet the definitions of support outlined in MHCLG guidance, including refuge accommodation, dispersed housing, sanctuary schemes, second-stage accommodation, and other specialist provisions. This transition period offers a strategic opportunity to design a refreshed commercial model that reflects evolving needs, builds on existing strengths, and encourages innovation in service delivery while continuing to ensure domestic abuse support services are inclusive, trauma-informed, and responsive to the diverse needs of Londoners. Given the scale and complexity of the programme, the GLA and MOPAC are adopting a phased and strategic approach to recommissioning. This will ensure continuity of support for victims/survivors while enabling a safe and responsible transition to new arrangements. The future model will be shaped through a period of iterative engagement with the market and wider stakeholders, with a strong emphasis on co-design, collaboration, and transparency.

We are seeking to procure immigration advice services to support Pan-London, sub-regional and local homeless and rough sleeping services and their clients. This will be a new procurement activity but we expect many elements will be similar to the current ongoing procurement for Rough Sleeping services. The procurement will include between 4 and 6 lots (TBC). The Lots will have different geographical reach. There will be specific requirements on the regulatory registration of these providers to be able to provide immigration legal advice.

The Clearing House is a pan-London coordination service for a partnership of landlords, floating support services (also commissioned by the GLA - see Tenancy Sustainment Teams), and rough sleeping services. This partnership facilitates access for people with a history of rough sleeping to over 3,700 one-bed social homes in the capital, with floating support. The Tenancy Sustainment Team (TST) is a pan-London floating support service which provides floating support to tenants of homes in the Clearing House scheme. Currently the TST has three main aims: to support tenants to sustain their tenancy, to facilitate access to employment training and education (ETE) opportunities, and to support positive move-on from the scheme when it is no longer needed.
